Exhaust header/heat delete

I have replaced my heat exchangers with custom headers.

As per picture (arrow), this tube now blows air to the ground. Should I let it be or should I have it blocked off ? I have no need for heat.

Thanks

Its better than to not blocking it off. Keeps heat and dust from entering the engine bay from that direction. Allowing the cooling fan only air from the the engine lid.
The most important is to block of the hole in the shroud that now feeds the fan.

Remove all the ducts and fan. Lots of unnecessary weight if your not in need of heating. Block of the hole in the shroud, yes.
